Prohibiting the use or possession of alcoholic beverages or controlled substances in a COCC or rental vehicle Not talking or texting on a cell phone while driving 15-PASSENGER VAN ADVISORY U.S. Department of Transportation Large Van Advisory: The risk of a rollover crash in a 15-passenger van increases, as the van is more fully loaded. The risk rises as passengers are added, and once the van has 10 or more passengers, the rollover risk is greatly increased. Placing a load on the roof also contributes to this increased risk of rollover. These two conditions change the van's center of gravity. As a result, the van has less resistance to rollover and handles differently from other passenger vehicles making it more difficult to control in an emergency situation. Most vehicle rollovers are single vehicle crashes in which the vehicle runs off the road and overturns when it strikes a ditch, embankment, soft soil, or other object. TIPS FOR PREVENTING ROLLOVER: Drivers must be well rested and maintain a safe speed for weather and road conditions. Drivers must be especially cautious on curved rural roads and maintain a safe speed to avoid running off the road. If the van's wheels drop off the roadway, gradually reduce speed and steer back onto the roadway when it is safe to do so. Roof racks are provided on some vans. Overloading these roof racks increases the risk of rollover. Do not put heavy objects in the roof racks. BUCKLE UP FOR SAFETY: Eighty percent of people killed in rollover crashes in 15-passenger vans were not wearing seat belts. Passengers can dramatically reduce their risk of being killed or seriously injured in a rollover crash by simply using their seat belts. All vehicle occupants should always wear seatbelts. Drivers should be responsible for enforcing the use of seatbelts. OTHER TIPS FOR SAFE DRIVING: When a 15-passenger van is not full, passengers should sit in seats that are in front of the rear axle. More than 15 people should never be allowed to ride in a 15-passenger van. Because 15- passenger vans are substantially longer and wider than cars, they: require more space and additional reliance on the side-view mirrors for passing do not respond as well to abrupt steering maneuvers require additional breaking time.
